It is ridiculous how long TOS agreements are. It is clearly not meant for a lay person to read. It is so much one-sided bullshit that it should be illegal.
Yet they'll brick your TV. Whatcha gonna do? A class action suit? Yay, get 30 dollars back 5 years from now. Worth it!
Don't buy Roku, ever again.
It's probably not enforceable in court.
